Lyrics:
Me and billy boy and old lady janeWe hitched a ride, took a fast movin' trainGot to the top with our heads spinnin' roundYou never know just what you got until you're comin' backDown on the farmland mississippi shadeThe folks down there they told me take it day by dayAnd walk the last mileBefore I sleepIt'll be a whileBefore I get my peaceWith the same styleI walked for yearsOn the last mileI can rest my fearsI got a long way to go before I reach the light of dayMonkies on my back I gotta find a better waySame old story never get just what you wantThe more you got the more you wantSometimes you do and then you don'tI guess I've always been a travelin' manCause when I'm movin' I can make a standAnd walk the last mileBefore I sleepIt'll be a whileBefore I get my peaceWith the same styleI walked for yearsOn the last mileI can rest my fearsDon't know where I'm goingBut I know where I've beenLook around me everybody's trying to winI guess I've always been a travelin' manCause when I'm movin' I can make a stand yea yeaAnd walk the last mileBefore I sleepIt'll be a whileBefore I get my peaceWith the same styleI walked for yearsOn the last mileI can rest my fearsThe last mileBefore I sleepIt'll be a whileBefore I get my peaceWith the same styleI walked for yearsOn the last mileI can rest my fearsThe last mileBefore I sleepIt'll be a whileBefore I get my peaceWith the same styleI walked for yearsOn the last mileI can rest my fears
